They're called license plate brackets unless you're referring to the frame that dealers usually put on.

Ahh. You know, I never thought about the name for those. I always just called them clips.

Yeah me too. Maybe screw clips, threaded clips, I dunno.

I'm not sure what they are called, but they are also on my wife's 95 Altima. Whenever changing plates I refer to them as "Pain in the asses".

WTF was the guy thinking that designed these things...

No idea. Perhaps call a Nissan dealer?

Woops, my bad, sorry. They are commonly called "u nuts".

Where can I get these clips?

 

[nwfsnake]

Hardware stores normally stock them.
